 "title": "Build a staged reading path on recursive self-improvement",
 "page_title": "How to build a staged reading path on recursive self-improvement with Awesome Rsi",
 "summary": "Turn the list's fundamentals and surveys into an ordered reading plan for a new team member.",
 "who": "A research lead or new graduate student who must get up to speed on recursive self-improvement within a week and has no prior background in the topic.",
 "problem": "The field spans model training, agent memory, harnesses, embodied systems, and safety, so a newcomer does not know which papers to read first.",
 "outcome": "A short ordered list of about ten papers, starting with the vocabulary and surveys, then moving to the section that matches the reader's focus.",
 "steps": [
  "Open the Fundamentals & Getting Started section of the README and read the opening note that says to start there.",
  "Read the Scope & Terminology section and write down the definitions of self-refinement, persistent self-improvement, and recursive self-improvement.",
  "Pick two or three surveys from Fundamentals & Getting Started, such as the Recursive Self-Improvement in AI survey and the Safety in Self-Evolving Agents survey.",
  "Choose one section that matches your focus, such as Model-level RSI, Harness-level RSI, or Embodied & Physical Self-Improvement, and read its intro paragraph.",
  "Write the ordered list with one line per paper saying why it comes at that point in the path."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the awesome-rsi README at lobehub/awesome-rsi, build an ordered reading path of about 10 papers for a reader focused on <focus area>. Start from Fundamentals & Getting Started, then pick entries from the section that matches the focus. Output a numbered list with one sentence per paper. Verify that every title and link appears in the README exactly as written.",

 "difficulty": "Beginner",
 "time": "15 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The list is community-maintained and says not every work listed demonstrates RSI in the strict sense, so the path should be checked against each paper's own claims.",

 "requirements": [
  "A web browser to open the GitHub README and the linked arXiv or journal pages",
